Happy Friday everyone – congrats on making it through another week! Today I wanted to share a recent purchase I made from Amazon. I decided a couple of months ago that I really needed more salads in my life. I had been buying the pre-packaged kind you get from the grocery store until I realized how much money (and calories) I could save by making the salads myself. So, I did what any reasonable person would do and searched the internet for the best salad bowls I could find. That’s when I came across the StayFit Deluxe Salad Kit.

What I love about this product is that it comes with 3 compartments: one for the lettuce, one for toppings and another for dressing. Gone are the days of wilted lettuce or making huge messes by attempting to put dressing in a Ziploc (which I’ve definitely done before). On top of that, the toppings compartment doubles as a freezer tray keeping everything cool! Basically there’s not enough good things I can say about this salad kit. It’s BPA-free, dishwasher-safe, and makes eating salads so much easier, especially since it’s perfect to bring to work!

On a side note: I’ve finally seen the light on how much better salad tastes when you shake it as opposed to just pouring the dressing on top. Since the lid snaps on, you can shake up all the ingredients together, allowing you to use less dressing while coating all of the salad evenly, and what’s better than that?

So that you too can bask in all the glory of a tasty salad, I decided to share the salad I had for lunch today.

If you didn’t see my last post, I made some delicious oven-roasted veggies which I’ve thrown into this salad. Once you’ve roasted your veggies, mix them in with your romaine lettuce, top with 1 tsp. balsamic vinegar and squirt with the juice from 1/4 lemon. Shake up your salad and it’s ready to eat!

I love using balsamic vinegar and lemon as a salad dressing because its so light, low in calories, and adds a fresh, tangy flavor to everything! Wishing you all a happy weekend and happy eating!
